Once again in 2023 you all blew me away with your caring and generosity in helping me to raise $33,505 to support the St. Baldrick’s Foundation and their fight against childhood cancers. Better yet, Team MaxBet Media raised an unbelievable $189,793!!
Over 13 years of shaving, my Team MaxBet Media and Team #MEMORIES teams have now raised $534,518 (yes that’s half a million dollars!!)
Team MaxBet Media has a great group of gaming industry shavees ready to top last year's total. We will once again join the amazing Brian and Lynn McMullan at McMullan's Pub in Las Vegas. Their one day shaving event last September was the top event in the country raising more than $500,000! Please join us on Saturday September 14th for the head shaving event.
We all have family and friends who have fought this nasty disease. We all have family and friends who have lost the fight. We need to help them fight! As most of you know my Dad, Dan Ingster Sr., was an amazing person and the most important person in my life (until Melissa and Little Dan came along). He passed away November 21, 2011 from a form of cancer called Cholangiocarcinoma. 25 years prior my Grandmother, Lynne Ingster, passed away from cancer as well. My Dad was such a caring person that he usually took care of others before himself. He was very proud of me for shaving my head the first time for St. Baldrick's 14 years ago and I know that he would want me to do anything I can to support this organization for as long as I can.
Although we have changed the team name I don't want to forget about Team #MEMORIES, which was in honor of our friend Chris Pennewell who lost a battle with cancer a few years ago. He taught me how important life is and how important it is to make memories for yourself and for others. Let's help these kids to fight cancer and grow up to make memories for themselves and their families! #Memories
